Adele shuts down hustler at her concert

During her recent concert in Las Vegas at Caesar's Palace, the multiple Grammy winner engaged in a banter with the crowd when an audience member got in the way. "What was that? Did you just say, 'Pride sucks?' Did you come to my f**king show and just say that Pride sucks? "Are you f***ng stupid? Don't be so f***ing ridiculous. If you got nothing nice to say, shut up, all right?" Adele, 36, said in a video that's gone viral on social media.

How Adele celebrated Pride Month this year

Last year, the singer marked Pride Month during her Las Vegas residency by wearing a black dress with a rainbow flag train and Pride-themed confetti. June has been celebrated as Pride Month annually since 1970. Despite facing challenges, Weekends With Adele has been a resounding success, with multiple extensions announced, continuing through November.

Additionally, Adele has expanded her reach with 10 one-off shows scheduled in Munich, Germany, slated for August. Adele's latest album, 30, released in 2021, garnered critical acclaim and multiple Grammy nominations, including Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album. The lead single, Easy on Me, received nominations for Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best Music Video, ultimately winning the award for Best Pop Solo Performance.
